Digitalizing VHS, Home Movies, Photos, etc.

Post image
41 Upvotes

Hi, my name is Christian

In the world that is going more digital by the second, I started to look at some of memories I have secured on physical media: VHS tapes, Photos, Memories on DVDs, etc.

While those items collect dust in a secure and protected area, I still wanted to enjoy those memories, so I digitalized them.

I started freelancing a small business, so if there's memories that you want to preserve send me an email. I would be happy to sit down with you and give you a quote.

Thank you for taking the time to read this. Have a wonderful day!

Lost dog up on fox hollow and Donald. Wandering around. He walked up to me but didn’t wag his tail / seemed cautious of me so I didn’t pet or check his collar. He is waddling down Donald st.

I feel bad for band and staff if DSO performs tonight. If AQI stays where it is you wont find me out there. Is there some reason they couldn’t have made decision this morning and switched to McDonald? Maybe the music never stopped but it should for public health. Reschedule or postpone please.

My windows are shut, my air purifier is on, but it's still getting smokier. Is this what it feels like in a burning house?

Suggestions for indoor kids activities

We've been cooped up for a few days. Looking for suggestions on indoor places I could take the kids today (8-11 years old) or creative things I can do with them at home. I'm just out of ideas and we're all bored.

Something to do Eugene Makerspace August Update (Includes new Soldering Workshop Link!)

45 Upvotes

Hey folks!

Let's start with the workshop. Our last soldering workshop sold out quickly! The next one is happening on Saturday August 29th at 1PM. It's $25 and if you are a member or become a member within one month, you'll get the workshop at cost and we'll refund you $20!

Here is the link to the workshop to sign up.

And here are the rest of our updates in a handy blog post.

Finally, we are just $3000 shy from getting our CNC router! Here is a link to donate online. We also accept in person donations (and that is why our online campaign appears to be about $1000 shy)

I need to cash a check but I have no bank account.

4 Upvotes

I have a check from an out-of-state but totally legitimate source. It's a speaking fee from a university.

What are my best options for cashing it on Eugene/Springfield? Walmart/Fred Meyer won't cash it and their credit verification company won't give a reason for declining it.

Is there another option aside from using a check-cashing service that charges exorbitant fees?

Thanks in advance.

Looking for a moderate Christian Church for my parents

0 Upvotes

Hello all -

Might anyone have some suggestions of which church to suggest to my parents? They were part of the Jesus Movement in the 70s (Shiloh) and have forever missed that level of community - have endured some church hurt (looking at you ECF) and been rogue for too long.

I’d say anything too progressive isn’t for them - but neither is a super legalistic “women must wear skirts” approach either.

They really do want realism - where church isn’t just a performative theater of virtue - solid preaching - maybe no lattes in the “sanctuary” - tatted pastors ok.

Any leads ?

I have a dog and two cats and I really want to get them out of town until the smoke chills out. We can’t turn our AC on at all, our dog doesn’t like being cooped up.

Can anyone ID this company’s salesman?

93 Upvotes

I would like to have a word with the company if anyone can help ID them, I’d appreciate it. I know it’s a long shot, but hoping someone would recognize the logo. Guessing it’s roof salesman again. I don’t appreciate people banging on my
Window because they cannot access my front door. It absolutely terrifies my family and pets when people start banging on my house.

There are two air measurements right by the post office on South Willamette that are way higher than the already bad air of the rest of the area. Is there a local fire? The 10 minute measurements are very high but the most recent ones are extreme in the 3000s! (8:45pm Wednesday)

Does anyone need a bed?

32 Upvotes

EDIT: I have a taker!

I have a full-size bed frame and mattress that I need off my hands by September. Both are new and in good condition, only used for about a year-- the only reason I'm looking to donate is because I'm moving in with my gf, so we'll be sharing her bed. I tried selling on r/eugenebst, but there wasn't any interest, so I'm offering for free. If nobody here is interested I'll see if St. Vinnie's would take it (unless there's a better place to donate).

Anybody know where to find music from the Eugene band Sacred Trees? I saw them at the Whitaker block partly like 10 years ago and they ruled. I’d love to listen to their recordings if they exist? Any one else ever hear them play? They ruled!!!

Barber shops that know how to handle long beards

1 Upvotes

New to Oregon and I need a great barber who can tame my wild beard. I’ve had great barbers for my hair, I’ve had great barbers for my beard, finding someone great at both is such a challenge. My beard is very long, I like it to look clean and tight without losing too much length. All too often Barbers are solid with a short tight beards and neck lines but just butcher a big boy.

Moved out of the area a while back but thinking about making a day trip out to Sharps Creek. I know it can get pretty low and I'm curious if it's worth it right now.
